Note to the Viking team doc if Thielen wants to play on a short week after a hamstring pull:

You have tranquilizers and needles. Figure it out.

Absolutely no reason to play Thielen on a short week...none...

Hopefully, he recovers quickly, but one positive about him being out is that it forced Cousins to start utilizing the TEs and other options in the offense.

Agreed...

The road after the Redskins isn't an easy one and we'll need AT:

@ Chiefs
@ Cowboys
Broncos
@ Seattle

Yeah, there shouldn't be any need for AT to rush back for Thursday. I doubt the coaches and team docs would allow it anyway. If he plays on Thursday, that means he's healed up.

Agreed it isn't about the who we play because any given Sunday, but the short week is killer on these guys anyway.

If that happens I'd be one happy camper and sniffing the same air BN is regarding 2017.

NFL season is long. It won't surprise me to see both the Chiefs and Cowboys improving the second 1/2 of the season. ..

Hold on a minute...

AT has an 87 consecutive game streak going?
